Customer Question

helloFollowing a radical prostatectomy my PSA is 0.086, having risen from 0.053 on the two previous occasions.Radiotherapy is being offered, but I am depressed by this as I am only just controlling my incontinence after 12 months. Also I am perplexed by the comments of the Oncologist who agrees with me that the location of the source is unknown. If the source was known I would feel better about the radiation approach. Am I being silly by hesitating? Is it better to just do it and be glad to be alive, because, despite this whinge I am extremely grateful for all the NHS has done for me.
